B.C. LAWYERS START 2ND ROUND OF BOYCOTTS

The Trial Lawyers Association of British Columbia started its second wave of service withdrawals this month in an effort to convince the provincial government to invest $100 million in additional legal aid funding.

The second wave, which will end on Feb. 14, leaves 53 provincial courthouses without duty counsel. That represents nearly two-thirds of all courthouses in the province.

The association hopes the service withdrawals will force the government to help more individuals qualify for legal aid and increase the number of services offered by the province.

A tax on legal fees currently generates $140 million annually but less than half of that goes to the province’s $68-million legal aid budget.

“The first phase of service withdrawals went very well in terms of support,” said Marc Kazimirski, president of the association.

“The lawyers involved are headed into Phase 2 with greater awareness already achieved for this important issue, and a strong sense of purpose remains.”

The association plans to withdraw services again during the first three weeks of March as well as during the entire month of April.
